Back to School Shopping Haul with Jet.com

Back to school is right around the corner and that means getting all the necessary supplies. If you’re like my son, we get a list of everything he needs for the first day of school. Besides the backpack, there’s a long list of supplies from pencils to notebooks to P.E. shoes.

We were excited to work with Jet.com on this back to school shopping haul. They gave us $50 to shop the site for the best deals on back to school. What I love the most about Jet.com is the wide variety of products and the fast shipping. They are really a one stop shop. I also get 15% off my first 3 orders which is awesome for a whole lot of back to school savings.

I always like to be able to get extra supplies for my son’s teacher and school. I love that the more quantities I buy of an item at Jet.com the more I save which is perfect for buying in bulk. I reached out to my son’s teacher to find out some of the items she might need the most and I was able to snag some great deals at Jet.com.

So let’s break down our shopping haul for you at Jet.com:

Erasers. A teacher can never have too many erasers. We loaded up on them with 3 packages of 3 for only $2.81 each. The kids better not say they don’t have an eraser this year! Get your Paper Mate erasers at Jet.com.

Highlighters. We grabbed a couple of packages of multi-color highlighters. It’s fun to brighten up your papers with a variety of colors! Plus, we snagged extras for the teacher. Two packages of six for $3.41 each. Get your Sharpie Accent Tank Style Highlighters.

Kleenex. I’m pretty sure the classroom can never have enough tissue papers. I ordered a few boxes of Kleenex for my son to take. The Kleenex Lotion Facial Tissue were $1.74 each at Jet.com.

Colored Pencils. My son has the MOST colored pencils, crayons and markers from years past. I am pretty certain I’ll send him to school with some he already has but I went ahead and grabbed a new box in case the teacher needs extras. The Crayola 24 ct. Long Colored Pencils cost $7.34 per box or less if you order more than one.

Red Grading Pens. I got a large box of BIC Ballpoint pens for for $6.33. My son had to bring one for supplies but I figured his teacher could use more so I got a box of them.

Oxi Laundry Booster. If you have a boy like me then you’re probably spending a lot of time getting tough stains out of their clothes. My son tends to attract every particle of dirt around him. Since I was out I went ahead and grabbed a box of all Oxi Laundry Booster For Sensitive Skin to really get those tough stains out.

No. 2 Pencils. Pencils seem to be a big item on the school supply list so I grabbed 2 boxes of 24 Dixon #2 Pencils while shopping.

Earbuds. My son’s teacher said she can always use extra earbuds. I grabbed some cheap earbuds while shopping for only $4.46 each. I know they may not last forever but they’ll be great for kids that don’t have any to bring from home. You can get pink earbuds or blue earbuds.

Ordering our school supplies from Jet.com has been a great experience. I love shopping online especially when it’s fast shipping (Free 2 Day Shipping) and gives me a discount for buying in bulk. Anything I can do to avoid the long lines at the store makes me happy. You can even use your debit card and opt out of returns for even more savings!
